Bill Breedlove You made my day!!! I wondered about Hope P.'s mentioning of Charles's mother having the name of Kindness Breedlove(posted on the Virginia web pages)...since a sister of charles was named kindness, it is likely she was named after her mother..the birth dates given for Charles (i show 1685) would make it feasible James of (1655) was his Father. (the maiden name of the earlier Kindness was the question) willette
